That's stupid. Who wants to use optical discs for watching movies on a laptop? Buy it from iTunes, save battery as a bonus.

Lol that's right!! When flying (and I do it a lot!) I just carry my MacBook Pro in a small backpack (no CDs or DVDs). Do Windows 7 users actually use Blu-ray on a regular basis? I don't even remember the last time I used my optical drive. By the way, I now use my iPad on board... it lasts longer. Example: Windows 7 with Blu-ray can only watch Avatar and half another movie. iPad from Dubai to Frankfurt... 8 hours.
